Synopsis
Written by
Anthony Shaffer
Written by the author of Sleuth, it takes the audience
back to Agatha Christie's England. Six strangers and a butler have gathered for
a black tie dinner in a wealthy lawyer's mansion during a thunderstorm. The
guests include an aged rear admiral, a bitchy aristocrat, a doddering old
archeologist, a dashing young cad and other Christie types. One of the guests
is an oily Levantine who tells the others (each in private) that he has the
goods to blackmail them. He is ripe for murder and so it happens. But,
whodunnit?
Originally performed at the Biltmore Theatre, New York
in December 1982.
It is set in the 1920s/30s in the library of Orcas
Champflower Manor; once a rather grand room with extensive bookcases.
Act 1- Early evening
Act 2- Later that evening
